Lana Del Rey Encounters Fan Dressed as Her Waffle House Alter-Ego at Halloween Party

Fan Sandy Ganzer, a makeup artist for celebrities, dressed as singer in viral Waffle House moment for Halloween party and unexpectedly meets Del Rey in person.

The fan encountered by Lana Del Rey at a Halloween party was high-profile makeup artist Sandy Ganzer. Dressed as Del Rey's viral Waffle House moment, Ganzer's costume mimicked Del Rey's July photos and video where she was seen in Alabama Waffle House uniform.
Ganzer's costume included a Waffle House employee shirt, a Pepsi bottle and straw, and a Waffle House 'Lana' name tag sticker. The makeup artist shared photos of herself and Del Rey, who she unexpectedly met at the party, on her Instagram page.
At the party, photos were taken of Del Rey and Ganzer, implying that the singer took the event light-heartedly. After the party, Ganzer thanked Del Rey on Instagram for her sense of humor about the situation.
The viral Waffle House moment referenced by the costume emerged from an incident in July. During this event, Del Rey was spotted in an Alabama Waffle House dressed as an employee and serving customers. Del Rey later explained she had been given the shirt by the servers after visiting the restaurant with her siblings for several hours.
Despite the humorous nature of the incident, Del Rey expressed disappointment in a Hollywood Reporter interview. She claimed that she wished her new album had received as much attention as her Waffle House stunt. The unplanned event received a significant number of texts and responses from people, including some she hadn't heard from in a decade.
